Sounds like people I wouldn't want to be tied up to anyway. Hopefully just joking.

I see more well taken care of older Bajas than anything around here. Owners took pride in them and there are plenty still around in excellent shape. I've also seen some million dollar rigs with cracks in the glass, busted dash, imperfections in paint when brand new, rusty hardware, mismatched fasteners, and other stuff after only a couple years of lake use. Boats are all custom built so fit and finish can be something you have to deal with now and again. I wish my boat was perfect...as hard as I try it is not.

I like seeing variety on the water and certainly don't want every boat out there to be the same as mine. I don't get some people's way of looking down on something else.

Also isn't a new Outlaw 36 with 520s a $389,000 boat? It was a couple years ago maybe that has changed. That is pretty hard to beat for what you are getting. Boat prices have skyrocketed out of the reach of many, and that seems like a pretty good value for a boat that probably will run 75 and has usable day boat features and a decent cabin.

Then of course you get that one guy that puts a tower and turf on an Outlaw. Yes I hate this Baja.

996hp? Must be some special Baja fishing version of HO's with extra power to get to those fishing grounds first.

The grass for the dogs to wizz on is a nice touch.

The sonic was a great boat but the cockpit was small very small,
I wasn't quite sure how I was gonna like the Baja after the fountains and the sonic and other boats I've owned, but I have to be honest with you that 33 outlaw rides pretty well,
